A member of the Ondo State House of Assembly, representing Ilaje Constituency 11, Favour Tomomewo, yesterday, narrowly escaped death in a motor accident.
Tomomewo is the only female member of the House and one of the supporters of the Deputy Governor of the state, Agboola Ajayi.

A source informed that the lawmaker was returning to Akure from her village, Mahin in Ilaje Local Government Area when the accident occurred.
It was gathered that the accident occurred on Ondo/Ore Road.
The lawmaker was said to have gone to her constituency in preparation for the All Progressives Congress (APC) primary.

The lawmaker is said to be recuperating at an undisclosed hospital.
